Dirt Roads & Diamonds

(album: Heart On Ice - 2023)

Dirt roads and diamonds
They're both out there somewhere
Just gotta find 'em
I heard they come in pairs
So I spent a lot of Friday nights
And I'm learning how to drive in between the county lines
Till I stumbled on a party with some friends
Then it all made sense

And now my head's spinning and it ain't from the whiskey
It's an Alabama shirt hopping out an old Jeep
Saw a couple dancing in her eyes
Got me saving every single dime
For a little gold band and some land off an old one
Now I got forever on my right, riding shotgun
Let me tell ya, man, nothing's gonna get you flying
Like dirt roads and diamonds

One keeps on winding
Cutting right through the pines
One keeps on shining
Brighter than the moon tonight
Ain't it kinda funny how
Love can get started out
Somewhere on a rural route
Back when I didn't give a damn
About nobody's left hand?

Now my head's spinning and it ain't from the whiskey
It's an Alabama shirt hopping out an old Jeep
Saw a couple dancing in her eyes
Got me saving every single dime
For a little gold band and some land off an old one
Now I got forever on my right, riding shotgun
Let me tell ya, man, nothing's gonna get you flying
Like dirt roads and diamonds

The two together never made sense
Till I stumbled on a party with some friends

Now my head's spinning and it ain't from the whiskey
It's an Alabama shirt hopping out an old Jeep
Saw a couple dancing in her eyes
Got me saving every single dime
For a little gold band and some land off an old one
Now I got forever on my right, riding shotgun
Let me tell ya, man, nothing's gonna get you flying
Yeah, I said, "Let me tell ya, man, nothing's gonna get you flying
Like dirt roads and diamonds"
